[manet] Continue the question of the broadcasting!

["Daniel luu" <danieluu at gmail.com>]

Hey,

 

   If broadcasting is the transmission character in wireless enviornment, that means, one node has to broadcast one packet to mutiple neighbors. Howerver, as we know, greedy or face routing is unicast routing protocol. That means only one copy of the packet is in the flight during the routing. I just wonder if these kinds of unicast routing protocols also use broadcasting to transmit packets to their neighbors. if that, how come we named them as unicast routing protocols?
